My city faces away from the sun
My river flows away from the ocean
I can’t remember the last time I prayed
Last time I sinned was today
I built a kingdom all to myself
I wanted freedom I didn’t want help
I didn’t know I was digging my grave
I didn’t know ‘til today
And the sparrow she calls me
Oh, she calls me by name
And she tells me you love me
I know you love me all the same
And I’ll find my way
‘Cause I was given today
